## About <!--about-->
Wittmannsthaler Quelle Medium is a natural mineral water with added carbon dioxide from the Wittmannsthal spring in Bad Dürrheim in the Black Forest, sold in a 1,0 l PET bottle.[^pack] The brand site presents Medium as its lightly carbonated water, between the still Naturell and the more sparkling Classic.[^maker] The label names Bad Dürrheimer Mineralbrunnen GmbH + Co. KG Heilbrunnen, which also publishes the brand's imprint.[^imprint] The water is labelled calcium- and sulphate-bearing, with an analysis extract by Institut Romeis in Bad Kissingen; the brand site prints the same figures.[^maker] Being carbonated water, it is exempt from an ingredient list and a nutrition declaration under EU rules.[^eu1169-art19][^eu1169-annexv]
The barcode already had a page on the first Barcodepedia in 2009, as "Wittmannsthal Quelle Medium 1,0 l", described as Black Forest mineral water with reduced carbonation.[^archive] A retailer page prints a different analysis, kept as a research gap.[^durstpost]
